WILL THE JEWISH PEOPLE BUILD ANOTHER TEMPLE?

That desire is most certainly in the heart of many dear Jewish people, who unfortunately have their hearts set on a Messiah yet to arrive.
 
He was the One who, among so many other extraordinary sayings, said of His own body (and to those out to get Him), “destroy THIS temple and I will raise it again in three days” (John 2:19).
 
Messiah Yeshua spoke of the temple of His body, the temple in which the Spirit of God dwelt whilst He was here. After His resurrection and departure there was to be a new house for the Spirit. It was those, who, following Him, were filled with His Spirit at Pentecost and since, to continue the work of making disciples.
 
That is His temple today. He dwells in a house not made with hands. Among the Jewish people today, there is a growing number coming to recognise and embrace the truth of Yeshua—and themselves become ‘living stones’ in this new temple.
 
But there are also those who, not having accepted Messiah Yeshua, are determined to build a new, physical temple and restore ritual worship.
 
For those of them who believe that the ‘traditional’ Temple Mount is the site where it must be built, there is, of course, a serious problem as it is occupied by the Islamic Shrine, The Dome of the Rock and the nearby Mosque of Omar.
 
My encouragement to every Jewish person is to embrace Messiah Yeshua. But for those who are determined to build—what if the traditional site is not actually where Solomon’s temple (and the later temple/s) stood?
 
What if they were actually at the site which had become known through biblical time as HaMakom—The Place? A site in the City of David,south of the alleged Temple Mount and above the fabled Gihon Spring where David had housed the Ark of the Covenant and other sacred articles? The site visited by Abraham with Isaac and later by Jacob and many others.
 
Now--that site would make the building of a proposed temple much easier!
 
Will it eventuate? Will God allow this—or will Yeshua return before it is possible?
 
In any case, make sure you read the exciting story of ‘THE PLACE, HaMakom: where Jerusalem’s Temples stood’

What people who've read THE PLACE are saying...

Marilyn Sams - author of The Jerusalem Temple Mount Myth: Ian Heard’s book adds a unique ....aspect to the growing movement of people accepting the City of David location for the temples in Jerusalem. His perspective .....brings many insightful possibilities to the table. Especially moving are his heartfelt expressions of faith in and love for the prophets and the Savior of the world'.
Pastor, Luke Yeghnazar of the Iranian Church of Los Angeles: Wonderful book. I trust it will be distributed widely. I read it with excitement. The reader will want to know what happens next. An exciting book to be read by Christians, Jews and others.

What readers of THE PEOPLE are saying...
The People is an enthralling and innovative approach, not only to telling old familiar stories but using narrative to portray, in a subtle but powerful way, the truth of good and evil in our world . . . There is good and evil, God and Satan, and in every human relationship/interaction and behavior a choice is to be made. The consequences, for those with the spiritual eyes to see, are clear. It is an exceptional and well written piece of work.” Allan Bull, Macquarie University, Sydney.
